We had been using the same rack on the living room for about 7 years now, so we felt it was time for a change.
My parents went out shopping and I was ready for a surprise, and damn, it truly was a surprise.
This new wall mounted rack looks so much better and more modern, it goes really well with what we've got going on, even with my Xbox One S which is pure white.
The difference in size is also astonishing, since it's wall mounted it takes up a lot less space and makes the living room feel more spacious.
I'm honestly quite happy with it.
I was initially afraid of leaving my Xbox horizontally because it felt like it was going to fall but I've been using it like this for some time now and I can safely say that was just paranoia, so here's a pic of my little brother playing Roblox.
What did we do with the older rack?
My best friend was using a really small old one for quite a long time, so I felt it would look a lot better on his living room. And it sure did.
Seeing your friends happy is also priceless, so even if it's not the newest gift, it's still nice because he finally has something better for his living room, it'll make our gaming sessions a lot more comfortable, that's for sure.
Another change we've made is with my little brother's room.
He was refusing to sleep there so we gave him a new bed with one of those sliding thingies on the bottom that hold an extra mattress so that way someone can sleep in the same room as him to ease his concerns of being alone at least for now, and gradually ease him into sleeping all alone.
It's how my parents did it with me when I was around his age. Kids be kids.
And there's also this new shelf for him to store his toys. This all makes the room look a lot more child-friendly and I guess that helps because he's already sleeping there and finally leaving my parents alone lolol
There are still more things to do around the house, such as fixing the lock in my door, getting a new bed for myself, etc.
But from step to step we make a difference and it all feels more and more comfortable.
